    So, I know you all saw I am getting a new animal soon, well, I also plan to buy a brand new set up for my snake room while I am at it!!!!

    I am using AP (Animal Plastics) just to see what sizes are used, but I need to know some info, which details will be down below.

    I only have 6 (soon 7) ball pythons, and since I only have so few, I am wanting to just stack my walls in my snake room with vivariums, I feel it will give more walking space as the racks stick out in the room a lot, and with like 4 of those, it will get crowded.

    So, that being said, what would be a good size to house adult ball pythons, also a good size that will allow me to divide in half for my younger balls?

    P.S. I will be getting a baby rack as well, just for breeding purposes, and will be putting my current rack in another room as a QT rack for any new animals, if I decide to make any new purchases.

    I think most people use T8s for BPs and you can place dividers in them for the younger ones.

    A divided T8 can hold two adult BPs comfortably, unless you have a really large female.

    I love my t8! Absolutely no head aches with temps or humidity, and I think they look great.
